Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the member for her advocacy on this issue. I have seen from the time she was elected that she has been very, very serious about this issue and I appreciate that.
I share her concern about the outbreaks of COVID-19 in long-term care facilities. As I said earlier, we will continue to work with our provincial counterparts closely. The released guidance for facilities on how they can protect their residents from COVID-19 is out there. Also, our government has invested heavily through the safe restart agreement, with $740 million for measures to control and prevent infections. Going forward, we will work with the provinces and territories to continue setting new national standards for long-term care.
